Default way cool

Rhys, That is the neatest photo of Yale old timers...I don't know why Amos Alonso Stagg isn't in there. By then he was coaching at University of Chicago I think. The first important thing I ever bought was Stagg's personal bookends, that you can see on my site Someday I have to do a story on them...I drove my beater 65 olds over to Stockton Calif and visited Stagg's son Paul Stagg and man was that a story...it was wild....that was in 1988.

As some may know about me I'm wild for broadsides...take a look at this 14" x 11" one below for the second Cal Stanford football game in 1892...notice who's ref'n the game...Walter Camp way out in California...I'm pretty sure the Bum McClung in your photo is the Thomas Lee McClung on the poster.
